Yeah, you're right. No need to rail anymore, it has been approaching scout level for a few months now. It's too late to rail now.

The first thing when I saw his post was "great, now we're going to get big pictures on the bottom of ridiculous things, as if the avatar isn't enough." I don't care if he has it or not. It's a free message board. As long as you're not unleashing personal attacks, crossing the proverbial line with hate language, politics, or over-reactionary you can do whatever is in your power.*

It's just the natural progression of message boards. No matter the attempt at upkeep, it will eventually devolve to scout level. Soon you'll start hearing people rail against that we're becoming mlive.

*Other exceptions may apply. Brian holds the final decision over subject manner and what the proverbial line is

Big, fat NO to pictures in sigs.

Someone mentioned it, but slippery mf-ing slope. There's simply no need whatsoever to have a signature with a picture in it. None at all. There's hardly a need for signatures to begin with - we're all Michigan fans. We know the all time wins, winning percentages, nat'l titles, yadda yadda yadda.

Let's keep the space in threads limited to quality discussion - that's what's great about MGoBlog to begin with.

Large pictures in signatures? This is an excellent development! Now, users can now have a picture with like 20 barely clothed women in their signatures instead of the 5 or so that the small avatar limits them to, really showing the world what heterosexual stallions they are!!

I think it's a great picture, and it belongs somewhere, just not in a signature.

I already know that the first few posts I read from "that guy with the really sweet coaches pic in the signature" will cause me to smile. The 75th post with that same signature will make me want to burn the pixels in my computer screen.

We're lucky that no female posters have avatars or sigs with men wearing only an "M" g-string. Boutros (name?) picture is bad enough.

Seriously, it is important to remember that some of us bring up mgoblog with others around who can get offended at pics, so I guess the question (for most) is: would your mom approve of a pic? Remember the "NSFW" designation. If a pic is nsfw, don't use as an avatar or signature.

In general, I don't want things cluttered with ridiculous amounts of pics in avatars and signatures. But I guess what I (or other readers) want doesn't matter . . . do your own thing.

Well, it seems to me that for the most part people are not in favor of an image in the signature. I was on the fence and have now been convinced to get rid of it.
